Why Mic'd up Caitlin Clark booed her own team for All-Star gaffe
That included her rooting on her teammates and pals on All-Star Friday and coaching her team on Saturday, both of which the Indiana Fever star did great jobs at.
MORE CAITLIN CLARK: The 5 funniest moments from the All-Star Game
There was one moment in particular that was hilarious. As her team's coach, she drew up a play for them to run to set up for a four-pointer (yes, there were spots deep that players could try to hit from for four). They executed it pretty well, but the shot was missed.
So how did the competitive Clark respond? As we could tell from the mic'd up portion of the broadcast, it was by booing her own team. Too funny!
What's the latest update on Caitlin Clark's injury?
It appeared to be a groin injury that she suffered on Tuesday, but we have no word yet on when she's returning to play for the Fever after the All-Star break.

Candace Parker calls effort in WNBA All-Star Game 'awful'
Associated Press Seven-time WNBA All-Star Candace Parker was unimpressed by the effort in the All-Star Game. Parker criticized the game on a podcast that aired Wednesday, calling it 'awful.' 'Y'all cannot come out there with those shirts of 'Pay Us What You Owe Us' and then do that,' Parker told All-Star Aliyah Boston on their new podcast 'Post Moves.' Parker was referencing the warmup shirts both teams wore at the July 19 game in response to failed collective-bargaining negotiations with the league earlier that week. Players are fighting for higher pay and better benefits, among other improvements. The game set a WNBA All-Star record for points scored and Napheesa Collier set the individual scoring mark with 36 points. Team Collier beat Team Clark 151-131. Defense was at a minimum as the league's stars allowed each other to get shots up without contest. It wasn't unlike the all-star games across other pro leagues, but Parker was looking for more from WNBA players at a time when they're in the spotlight. 'I think on one of the biggest stages, in an All-Star setting that was invested in more than any other All-Star game previously. … I think it would've really maximized the moment.' Fever forward Boston, who played on Team Clark, defended the performance of her and her peers. 'An All-Star Game, where we have another game in two days, I think that it's OK to just go out there and hoop and have some fun,' she said. 'Because on Tuesday, we were back at it, and we were playing and we were showing once again why we deserve to get paid.' ___ AP WNBA:

Chicago Cubs, Wrigley Field to Host 2027 MLB All-Star Game
Get ready for another edition of the Midsummer Classic at the friendly confines in 2027. The Chicago Cubs and MLB announced Friday that the 2027 All-Star Game will take place at Wrigley Field. The game will be played July 13, 2027, as the culmination of All-Star Week festivities. The 97th edition of the All-Star Game will be the fourth hosted at Wrigley Field. The American League won the previous meetings at iconic stadium in 1947, 1962 and 1990. "I applaud the Ricketts family, the entire Cubs organization, the City of Chicago and the Chicago Sports Commission for presenting an impressive vision for 2027 All-Star Week," MLB commissioner Rob Manfred said. "The hard work put in to transform all of Wrigleyville into an outstanding destination deserves to be celebrated and shared on a national stage. The 2026 contest will take place at Citizens Bank Park, home of the Philadelphia Phillies, to mark the 250th anniversary of U.S. independence. The Phillies' former home, Veterans Stadium, hosted the All-Star Game in 1976 to honor the nation's bicentennial. "We look forward to bringing the Midsummer Classic back to historic Wrigley Field and working alongside the Cubs, city and state officials, and the local organizing group to bring an extraordinary experience to the baseball fans of Chicago," Manfred added.
